Fit*****arge Advice
I'm looking into purchasing the Fit*****arge. I'm having a hard time trying to decide on the wrist band size. A friend has the flex and hers came with different band sizes so I'm wondering if that was anyone's experience with the charge? The website offers wrist sizes but the issue is that a small fits wrist sizes 5.5" - 6.5". My wrist measures just barely above the 6.5" but by like 2-3 tiny lines!! lol A large (there is no medium) fits sizes 6.5" - 7.7". So basically I have no idea how much room I'll lose in my wrists but if I lose much then the large will no longer fit but if I order a small I may not lose enough and it may never fit or fit very tightly! What to do, what to do? I think I'm leaning towards ordering the small since I'd hate to order the large then it be too big a month later.
I would see if you could try one on- nothning worse then a tight fit or a huge fit, and you are right on that brink for sure!

I'd go with the small. When I bought my fitbit I went with the large & am now on the second to last rung on it. I bought the same fitbit for my mom & got the small since she's smaller than me & it fit me fine as well. I'm sure you can exchange it if its too big/small.

I'd go with the smaller one. I used to have a Nike Fuelband but I had to stop wearing it post-op since my wrists got so much smaller.

I had a similar experience, where my wrist was borderline - a bit smaller than the 6.5, actually, but close. I went with the larger size, and when I wear it, there are still three holes to make it tighter. So it seems they have designed both sizes to accommodate people with wrists in the middle. I suspect either will work for you.
